Description

The online and offline event behaviour has changed from 2.1.0 to 2.2.0. In 2.1.0, the online event fires immediately when the event listener was added if there is an Internet connection, but doesn't in 2.2.0. Those events work fine in all other instances though when turning on/off mobile data etc. Is this change by design, or is it a bug?
